Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Waterpower '91: A New View of Hydro Resources

Abstract:

A novel computational model has been developed to predict highly complex turbulent flow in a combined spiral casing/distributor geometry. Validation of the computational model against experimental data and its application as a hydraulic design tool are presented.
